Allied Health & Nursing Neuromodulation Special Interest Group – AHNNSIG
The Allied Health & Nursing Neuromodulation Special Interest Group (AHNNSIG) is pleased to announce a new addition to its educational offerings: the Intrathecal Pump Therapy Booklet. This joins the established Nursing in Neuromodulation Education Handbook, which provides an evidence-based introduction to caring for spinal cord stimulation patients.
Both resources reflect AHNNSIG’s commitment to setting industry standards and empowering nurses to feel confident in their patient care.
NSANZ members can request complimentary copies of either resource by emailing the NSANZ Secretariat at secretariat@nsanz.org.au.
How to join NSANZ
NSANZ is a chapter of the International Neuromodulation Society (INS).
The International Neuromodulation Society
The Fastest-Growing, Worldwide Multidisciplinary Body Devoted to Building Knowledge of Neuromodulation.
The International Neuromodulation Society (INS) is a non-profit group of clinicians, scientists and engineers dedicated to the scientific development and awareness of neuromodulation – the alteration of nerve activity through targeted delivery of a stimulus, such as electrical stimulation or chemical agents, to specific neurological sites in the body.
The San Francisco-based INS was formed in 1989 and educates and promotes the field through meetings, its peer-reviewed journal (Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface), mentorship, and chapter websites. The INS also provides information for patients and produces rolling news briefs about this rapidly evolving field.

Once logged in to the INS Members-Only Section, members can access the full INS journal, Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, edit their profile, list their practice in the INS public directory, connect with other members, post or seek employment opportunities, view a database of neuromodulation products, access images for slides or posters, download custom patient handouts, and access past congress proceedings.

NSANZ congratulates Megan Hannah on receiving the 2026 NSANZ Lifetime Achievement Award!
This honour is incredibly well deserved. Megan has dedicated many years to advancing neuromodulation and advocating for its place within the holistic care of patients living with chronic pain. Her leadership, education, mentorship and tireless advocacy have had a profound impact on our specialty.
It is also particularly fitting that, as a Nurse Specialist, Megan becomes the first non-medical recipient of this award, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of neuromodulation and the vital contributions made by all members of our healthcare teams.
